Who Is Your Fave Lisa Kleypas Hero?

I suspect this is just another endeavour to prove that Derek is the best boy, ha, well I loved him too, but I voted for Sebastian!

Go vote, ‘tis very exciting!

Google seems to be buying out the competition? Isn’t there some kind of monopolies ruling in place to stop all things from going Google?

God, I wish I’d thought of the YouTube phenomena, barely twenty months in, and those guys make $1.65bn from selling it? Why couldn’t I have been born a computer nerd…

A while ago, JaynieR (god rest her blog) talked about how heroines and heroes having sex with wolfie shapeshifters and the like, was not the same as bestiality. I pretty much agreed with her, but I came across this book at EC, and although it sounds marginally interesting, there’s something about a human having sex with a dragon (ok he’s half dragon-half man) that kinda makes me want to cross my legs in distress.

Here’s the blurb from EC:

“Planet Cordania is in dire straits. Seven long years of drought threaten Queen Jana’s people. Because of it, she will do the unthinkable. She will sign a contract with Mordovea’s King Renae. Twenty-four hours in the arms of a Dragcon ruler, a distasteful task but a small price to pay for her people’s survival when no other will come to her aid.

King Renae has finally discovered a way to be in the arms of the woman he’s loved from afar. Half man, half dragon, he knows that she and the people of Cordania have scorned his kind forever. They can never be together. But one night will be enough for him. Or will they realize that love does not follow a set course of rules?”

I didn’t get the same yucky feeling reading Nalini Singh’s, Slave To Sensation, and the hero was a shapeshifting leopard. I wonder if it’s because, I consider dragons to be ugly creatures, whereas wolfies, and leopards etc, are quite majestic looking? I realise that they will probably get horizontal whilst he’s in his human form, but still…

I shall go away and ponder this some more methinks…
